This update is a two-for-one, with two site changes of particular importance:

All players may now have two active characters without needing Companions status.

The Guilds & Factions forum format has been changed.

Multiple Characters

Since the inception of the Circle of Companions donator program, the ability to have multiple characters has been tied to maintaining an active subscription to the Circle of Companions. While those not subscribing were limited to a single active character at a time, Companions could have a potentially unlimited number of characters active at once.

Today, we're changing this. Effective immediately, all players may now maintain and play two active characters without being a subscriber to the Circle of Companions.

All of the usual rules on avoiding interaction and interference between different characters of the same player remain in place.

Factions & Guilds Forum Revamped

The Guilds subforum (found under the Characters forum) has been changed. Previously it was a section housing entire subforums for individual factions, something that required a fair amount of administrator intervention to maintain properly.

Going forward, the Guilds subforum will be used to instead house single threads for each Guild or Faction, which can be created and maintained at their founder's leisure. The specific rules for that section are included in the header there.

As always, feedback and discussion on these changes can be discussed by replying here. I'll have some additional insight into these changes posted in reply shortly.

Thanks!
